I like all of these. The only thing I can pick on is number 1. I like it but what is in the floor board? Can you clone it out or does it have meaning?
I really like the ones in the car.

yeah I noticed that afterwards. It's a suntan lotion bottle. I don't know how to clone things out of photos. I have photoshop elements - can I use that?

I like numbers 1 and 6 best. I agree with the earlier poster that cloning out the white distraction on the floor of the car would be good.

What I like about both of these are the interplay of curves and especially angles -- between her legs and the car in #1 and arms/legs and the architecture in #6. #1 might have a little blown out highlites to knock it a bit, and her left arm could be more artisticly placed, but nice start -- hopefully she is pleased enough to encourage some more, either with her or friends...

Very nice job on these! I bet she loves them!

Funny thing is, she hasn't even seen them yet. She's living at her fiance's house and he doesn't have internet. She says she's going nuts and that she's dying to see them.

Nice variety! My favorite of the set is number 1. I like the composition and the lines of the windows. (I'm wondering how it would look to color the exterior of the car to match the interior?) I also like that she is looking at the camera. Her eyes in the other shots are a little too harshly turned. Great location, I like the iron gate and the steps. The gate is interesting, but not too distracting. I don't care for the gate in front of her in #5, it doesn't add much to the shot there. I also like how her dress matches the upholstery in the car. I don't know if that was intentional or not, but it's nice that it another color didn't detract from the vintage upholstery of the car. Over all I think she will love these.

Who has the cool old car??

It's my dad's old 1966 Impala SS. The car is in pristine condition and I had to push it out into the driveway when he wasn't home. He'd kill me if he knew I took it out of the garage -

I was going to ask, is that an Impala, but you answered. We have a 67 - I should be using it for photos.

I really like this set, and the PP - you did a good job.

Thanks very much. It's dad's pride and joy. He had a 68 Mustang that he had restored to completeness - that car was amazing but he sold it about a year ago. I'd loved to have gotten some shots in that thing.

Nice creative shots. Bet she was very happy with these.
Keep up the good work....a few incosistencies in lighting but considering the lighting conditions...to be expected.
Nice work...composition is first rate.

All these shots are nice. My faves are 1, 3, and 2 in that order.

I too like #1 the best and I agree that it probably cause she's looking at the camera. The framing with the window is also super cool. I love the coordination with the outfit and the car interior.
